Very Well Casino Casino Review

Very Well Casino is part of a group of operators, none of which list any licensing or ownership information, but all of which share extremely similar web design, game selections, and nearly identical terms and conditions, including unusual bonus rules limiting the maximum allowed bet far lower than all but a handful of operators we've ever encountered. We consider it to be likely that all of these operators are likely run by the same people. At the very least they are clearly sharing resources. The operators in question are as follows:

• Admiral Shark
• Agent No Wager
• Fruity Chance
• Jackpot Charm
• Magic Reels
• MisterX
• Maximum.Casino
• Prestige Spin
• Very Well Casino
• Win Diggers

This group of operators feature prolifically on advertising sites specifically targeting search terms similar to 'casinos not on Gamstop'. As Gamstop is a self-exclusion program intended to support gambling addicts, search traffic generated by these types of terms is going to be made up primarily of those who are experiencing gambling addictions and who are struggling with relapse. The sites targeting these terms and channeling the resultant traffic through to unlicensed operators are prey on gambling addiction and ruining lives.

It is also highly likely that the operators in this group are distributing fake, illegal copies of well-known slots games. This can be easily established given the branded slots games (those based on household name media franchises) that have been discontinued by the real manufacturers due to no longer having the licensing rights to use the brands, but which persist on these sites.

The distribution of unauthorized copies of games is extremely dangerous to the financial wellbeing of players. While the games may look graphically the same as their counterpart, nothing else is. There is no game testing, they will not conform to the payout rates of the genuine games, and given the nature of the operators that distribute these fake games, it is very possible that the games themselves are designed to provide the operator undue control over the results.

This group of operators is also non-responsive to complaints submitted to this service.

"8.17. Payouts of large amounts on Skrill and Neteller are discussed individually. " (17/12/20) This term is vague in the extreme - what constitutes a "large amount" is something of a movable feast. Players have the right to know absolutes before agreeing to an operator's Terms and Conditions.

"12.6. If your account remains inactive for a long period of time - 6 (six) or more months - we can close your account or suspend its operation without notice. In case of such closure of the account, the Terms will be automatically canceled from the effective date of such cancellation. " (17/12/20) The operator does not clearly stipulate what happens to positive balances stored in accounts that are inactive once the account is closed but the implication is that the operator retains it. The operator also state that they will make no effort at all to help players prevent their account from being declared inactive by contacting them - this is very customer unfriendly.

"8.14.2 When creating a request for payment, you must have at least one successful deposit in the last 30 days. If during this period you have never deposited to your account, or started the game with a welcome no deposit bonus, before creating an application you need to make a deposit and also fulfill the condition on the amount of bets. The minimum required bet amount in games is three times the deposit amount."(17/12/20) This term is problematic since it requires players to continue depositing in order to make withdrawals - of a player has a large win that cannot be withdrawn in one go as a result of the withdrawal limits they should not be encouraged to play further in order to claim the rest of their rightful winnings.

"29.1.3 Please note that by agreeing to get bonuses from the casino, and having got bonus winnings in the amount exceeding five thousand dollars, we reserve the right to limit such an application to maximum of five thousand dollars in any 7-day period. " (17/12/20) Players should note this term - coupled with the rule stated in 18.4.2 above players are forced to continue depositing and playing even if they have a positive balance already as a result of a large win. This appears predatory in nature.
